Load Cell Cables

There are hydraulic load cells pneumatic load cells and strain gauge load cells.

Load cell cables.

The inner working of a load cell differs based on the load cell that you choose. A load cell works by converting mechanical force into digital values that the user can read and record. Key features high quality pvc material for insulation. Whatever you need scale outlet has the.

The 6 wire cable is not part of the temperature compensating system of the load cell. Never cut a 4 wire load cell cable. Rugged guardian load cell cables are engineered for truck livestock floor railroad and other weighing scales. The 6 wire cables are best suited for longer runs where remote sense lines can be used.

The 6 wire load cell is used as the sense wires compensate for the voltage change when the length of the wires is changed. 1156 dhana sutahr s pole opposite ambaji mata s temple relief road kalupur ahmedabad 380001 dist. Length of the standard cable for which the load cell is calibrated. These high quality load cell cables can be used as suitable replacements for your existing cables.

The length of the cable will make a difference to the resistance being measured this is where the 6 wire has the advantage. All types have standard 6 wire with 2 shield for high sensitivity and noises protection. If you need assistance with checking the compatibility of a cable for your load cells please contact us for support. The load cell is calibrated and compensated with a certain amount of cable attached.

Rice lake offers a broad selection of load cell cable as well as the ability to custom build cable designed specifically for your application. The sense lines are connected to the sense terminals of the indicator to feed back the actual voltage at the load cells. Measured as a of full scale output. Although 4 wire load cell cable is the most commonly used and economical it is worth considering if a 6 wire cable is better for your application.

Cable length affects how the load cell is calibrated. The maximum load that can be applied to a load cell without causing permanent effects to its performance specifications. The product line includes versions for standard and extreme environments with 4 or 6 wire load cells. Our catalog includes load cell cables produced by leading manufacturers like amcells.

Strain gauge load sensors are the most commonly used among the three. As a general rule 4 wire is better for short runs or replacing a damaged line whereas a 6 wire cable is better for longer runs in uncontrolled environments. When a load cell is in use the cables will measure through resistance.
